Guidelines

We are likely to run into unforeseen difficulties and conflicting needs of students. Please be courteous and we'll try to work things out. In general, sign up below when you know what experiment you want to do. It probably doesn't make sense to sign up more than one week ahead of time. Try to work things out with other students face to face during class.

e/m Ratio for Electrons (dark)

Set up for this lab is extensive (3 total power supplies) & there is high risk of damaging apparatus. Large systematic error and a big part of lab is hypothesizing why the error exists and figuring out how to minimize it.
